I honestly had so much fun on this trip! When my mum started planning this holiday last year I was kind of deflated because I was more keen on going to tiny little islands in the Philippines. I'm a beach person and most of the time I'm more willing to spend my time lounging by the beach rather than exploring a foreign country in cold weather. But I don't regret coming at all!
One of my favourite things about Hong Kong is the abundance of green tea lattes/matcha milks in almost every cafe that I visited - even the restaurants. Seriously, I'm a sucker for green tea and it was pretty great finding green tea in almost every menu. Secondly, the cold weather felt so good after being in the heat for such a long time. It was summer when I left Australia and with Philippines being a tropical country, we had a daily climate of 30 degrees (Celsius) - which to be honest wasn't bad, but for me it was just refreshing to get reacquainted with winter. Though I have to say, their winter is really mild - nothing too cold, just chilly enough for warm drinks to make you feel wonderful when you have them.
But what made this holiday extra special was that I spent so much quality time with my family. When we're not on holiday mode we usually just go about our daily business and tend to not mind one another. But I guess holidays always do that anyway, they bring out the fun and adventure in everyone. Well that's what it does to me so swell hehe. Anyway, I'm going to let the photos do the talking from now.
'Til my next travel post! x
